LEASES

The Company leases branch locations, office space, land, and equipment. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. As of March 31, 2019, all leases have been classified as operating leases with approximately 170 non-cancellable operating leases where the Company is the lessee. The Company does not have any material arrangements where the Company is the lessor or in a sublease contract.

Operating leases have been reported on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet as an operating ROU asset within Other Assets and an operating lease liability within Other Liabilities. The ROU asset represents the Company’s right to use an underlying asset over the course of the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the incremental borrowing rate. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The operating ROU Asset is recognized at commencement date based on the initial measurement of the lease liability, any lease payments made excluding lease incentives, and any initial direct costs incurred.

Total lease expenses are recorded in Occupancy Expense on the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Income. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Most of the Company’s leases include one or more options to renew, however, the Company is not reasonably certain to exercise those options and therefore does not include the renewal options in the measurement of the ROU Asset and lease liabilities.

Leases where the Company is a lessee are primarily for real estate leases with remaining lease terms of up to 30 years. The Company’s real estate lease agreements do not contain restrictive covenants or residual value guarantees. At March 31, 2019, the total ROU Asset was $58.5 million and total operating lease liabilities were $71.2 million. Total operating lease expenses were $3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
  
As of March 31, 2019, the Company had no operating leases that have not yet commenced and no sales leaseback transactions.
